Over the last several weeks, the House has rightly made efforts to condemn antisemitism and show support for the Jewish people.
Mr. Speaker, I rise in opposition to H.R. 5961, the No Funds for Iranian Terrorism Act. If passed, H.R. 5961 would destroy our credibility in negotiation for our nation moving forward on future diplomacy with Iran, putting the U.S.—and the world—in danger of a nuclearized Iran.
